Radiator questions.....

My 67 GTX clone (440) still has the 22in small block radiator in it and I am pretty sure I should change it out for the big block radiator before summer sets in. I have been looking on ebay and I see these Champion brand radiators which are 3 row aluminum for $219....seems like a pretty good deal. Anyone used this brand before? Any other suggestions for a replacement? I really want to be sure I do not have overheating issues later this summer.

My recommendation is to make sure it has the proper bracket on it, a lot of them are one size deals and then you have to bracket it up and could possibly lose some air flow.

I will watch for that, thanks for the info. Do you all know if the cars back then were drilled for either mounting the 22 or 26 inch radiators, or for both?

To me, it looks like there are 3 holes down the drivers side, 2 on the passenger side, and the lower hose and petcock are on the drivers side and the upper hose is on the passenger side...do you all agree?

It does not really matter which side the petcock is on as far as I can tell, correct?
